Hello Ladies,
Baranette's Bridal in Willow Grove is closing the end of November. It's worth a try. The whole store is 30-90% off. I purchased a Maggie Sottero Divina dress, for an amazing price for my 2016 wedding.

Hello,
All of my bridesmaids live in different states, and I mean, Maryland, New York, Arizona, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey. Some of them know each other already, some dont. My friend from AZ will be in town for Thanksgiving, so I decided that I will have a girls night at my house the Saturday of Thanksgiving weekend. I talked to some of them and they all seemed excited for it. I only know one, will be out of town and shes very young (16) so, it's okay if she can't make it.
So, I was wondering. If I should invite my mom, fiance's mom, and aunt (godmom) I would invite my stepmom, but I'm pretty sure she won't make it. I live 3 hours away from my family.
I doubt my mom, will come since this will be an evening event.
I tried googling and found some people ask for help on other boards like wedding wire, but the ladies there arent very friendly and I feel that since this is a destination wedding, this could be helpful.
I was going to make food and sangria.
I don't know if I should decorate my house in anyway special.
I also do not know what we should be doing, I don't want this to be awkward. Are there any games we can play or anything? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Mine only says 800 for outside vendors. I was just gonna get day passes for my photographer

The moon palace 2014 thread has some really useful information. Lol one question I'm still trying to figure out is who are there preferred vendors. I heard some have changed.

Oh that's a great idea thank you, I would love the chair ties. I would also love an outdoor reception but fh wants a ballroom, so we will slee paying more to make it look like something. I'm worried that the ballrooms look dated since many people aren't choosing yo use them @@jackielemman
My colors are navy and gold with hints of pink. Did the chairs come with the cushions?

@@jackielemman your pictures are beautiful. My ceremony will be at the Bugambilias Gazebo and reception in a ballroom (I asked for star, but we'll see). You definitely should do a how to guide under 10k! Your pictures are beautiful. Did you do video? It's great that you had 40 guests and hit the 75 nights. Did you honeymoon at Moon too? How do they treat honeymooners? My friend honeymooned at Sun Palace and loved it. The cigar tolling sounds great and the mariachi is an awesome touch, I'm sure my fiance will say no to exrra expenses our budget is 9k including our flights and honeymoon. Did you rent you're tablecloths too? I was thinking of buying them online, I want navy tables with gold accents and hints of pink

@@jackielemman thanks for sharing. I wish my wedding was closer. Where did you stay? We booked a concierge room. I asked for the sunrise side, but I was told that it's really up to Palace. I'm glad you reached the 75 nights. That is what I am stressed over now, trying to get guests to pay their deposits.
Our budget is under $10,000 as well. We plan to hire a DJ, but I would like to have a better range on how many guests are coming. Before I hire one. Maya Floral has a bunch of great reviews, I am not a flower person though and was going to have my stepmom make fake bouquets for everyone, but maybe I can order a few bouquets from Maya Floral for centerpieces. To upload pictures there is a white box with green inside under the smiley face, when you hover over it, it says image. I have my wedding booked for the bugamibilas sp gazebo, but I want to switch to Tucan for the longer walkway. We want to have a ballroom reception, I appreciate your feedback on the ballrooms since it doesnt seem to be popular for many. I asked for the Star ballroom, but who knows what I'll get. I just dont want it to be dated. I saw the ballroom at Playacar Palace and it is quite nice and has white draping.

I believe Moon Palace uses Ocean as well. The outside Vendor fee for Palace is $800. I have not received a list of Palace approved vendors yet, however, I have seen some prices before of preferred photographers and I feel that hiring an outside photographer, with the vendor fee, still lets me save money and gives me more for the money.. as in more time. I also do not want printed pictures, I would rather them on a desk or drive and I will have them edited and printed myself. I don't mind if they are edited, but I don't want them printed.

Hi ladies,
I know alot of us have been utilizing the 2014 Moon Palace thread. However, I thought it would be useful for us to have a thread for our needs since things change throughout the years. Plus this would be easier to navigate than going through 90 pages of threads. Palace changes preferred vendors at anytime apparently and has recently changed the promo for weddings.
I am still trying to get the hang of the new promotion. I thought I understood it, then I was wrecking my brain last night trying to figure out what I needed to qualify for free nights. So stressful, I've been having nightmares and my wedding isn't until June 2016.

@@jackielemman do you still have the zuniga catalog?
-
Does anyone have the list of approved Palace vendors and the catalog for Zuniga?
Thank you
-
@@jackielemman I'm so glad everything is turning out great. I didn't know they had multiple spas

@@calgarybride2015 no, similar, it was selvetica. We had an amazing time. I wonder what places Moon Palace credits can be used at because I would love to do a group excursion there
-
They aren't necessary. But, we vacationed to Riviera Maya in September. We got pictures taken by the resort photographer we only bought 3, pictures at $15 each. We used one for our save the dates, return labels, and on our website
We also bought pictures when we went zip lining and atving. We put those pics on our website as well

My onsite planner is Leidi @@llevasseur I contact her directly for anything
-
@@natalie25 Brenda is mine as well. What do you mean by details? We booked the Bugambilias Gazebo and Terrace for cocktail. I asked for a ballroom for the reception. I said the Star ballroom, but she just said "a ballroom was reserved." I want to also book time for the welcome party, but I don't know if I can do that yet. I want to plan as if I have reached the 75 room nights. At least, thats the goal. I plan to use the free dinner as a rehearsal dinner with the bridal party and parents.

My wedding is June 2016. I have been assigned mine, since like August. But, it could only be because we were planning to do a site vist @@Wafflesmom. Since many of these ladies have their weddings coming up or passed for 2014. We should probably start a new thread for 2015/2016 brides since a lot of changes have been made.
-
@@jackielemman that so exciting! Have a great time, I cant wait to hear all about it
-
@@natalie25 I've asked palace for this list and I've yet to receive it
-
Does anyone have Leidi as their on site coordinator?
-
Yea mine is 800 as well.
-
Oh great thank you @@kmk2016. I'm glad I'm not the only one planning so far ahead. What vendors did you book and do you have any recommendations? I have a hefty outside vendor fee so I want to be sure they are great.

I would love to go backless. I love the style of the Galia Lahav dresses, but unless I lose weight by June where I'm comfortable to see no back fat lol (when I plan on starting shopping for a reception dress and bridal party) I won't be. I am also large busted, DDD. So, not having a full bra makes me uncomfortable as well. I was thinking of having a dress made, with an illusion back
